My Sisters and Me

For a little girl learning about life from parents and family, the effect that the indian agent had on everyones life would not be noticed. Their life would be 'normal'. Later on that influence would be seen as a controlled environment. The closeness of family and friends and our spirituality provided the strength to endure and make a life as best we could. These stories act as a window into the joy and pain of those early years. While the stories are true I have included some childrens stories told to me by my grandparents which were used as teaching tools.
